Thought of the day

Dear Friends,

Read a quote that provoked me a few days back. "Growth is the only evidence of life." Pretty smart words. They came from John Henry Newman. Since then I have been thinking, how to put this across.

You know I adore the whole notion of growth. To me, that's why we're here. To grow and expand through the work we do, the actions we take and the lives we lead (Don't just live your life - lead it).

But the growth that I am talking about is not just the external one but it is the growth from within. We need to be proud of who we are and not what we are - Status, Name and Fame are secondary and there is no meaning to life if we cannot grow internally - the right character, knowledge and attitude is what will help us be better human and it will také us places. External growth happens when you focus on the internal ones.

Growth from within matters. It's what ultimately makes us feel fulfilled. Energizes us (even when it's uncomfortable - and most growth is). Makes us who we truly are.

Hope you just don't read these mails of mine as mere forwards as I believe in sending my belief - these are from the books that I read, quotes from the motivational sites that I get or some which are my versions. Please také it forward to your friends as well - Lets make this world a beautiful place to live in.


Cheers,

B
